Lauren Odes, 29, of Harrison worked at Native Intimates, a Manhattan wholesale lingerie company, coordinating shipments of samples to customers. She told Eyewitness News that while her supervisors continuously complained about her work attire, they gave her no set guidelines as to what was appropriate.

In a press conference Monday, Odes said, "When I first started working there, I asked what the dress code was, and I was just told to look around and see what everyone else was wearing. So I did. The dress was very casual athletic wear to business attire."

On one occasion, Odes told Eyewitness News she wore a short-sleeve purple dress and was told that the company’s Orthodox Jewish owners felt it was drawing too much attention and should be avoided for her “own safety.”

At one point, a supervisor suggested she tape her breasts down, Odes told reporters, to which she replied, “Are you kidding me?”

Odes said the supervisor then said, “Just cover up a little more.”

On another day, hoping to appease her employers, Odes said she wore a knee-length black dress with a shawl, only to be told to wear a red bathrobe. Odes snapped a camera photo of herself in the robe and said she was embarrassed, having been made fun of by coworkers.

After this incident, Odes said she went out to buy yet another work outfit but was fired by phone before having a need for it.

Odes told Eyewitness News, "I do not feel an employer has the right to impose their religious beliefs on me when I'm working in a business that's not a synagogue, but sells things with hearts on the female genitals and boy shorts for women that say hot in the buttocks area.”
